Instructions

  1. Warm the milk to 110-115°F, then combine it with sugar and instant yeast in a mixing bowl. Allow it to sit until bubbly.

  5. Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread softened butter over it, then sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon on top.
  6. Roll tightly into a log and cut into 12 pieces; place on a lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake at 350°F for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. While baking, prepare frosting by mixing softened cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
  9. Once baked and slightly cooled, frost the rolls generously.
